The number of fraudulent recruitment scams in Singapore has been on the rise. These scams typically involve individuals pretending to be legitimate recruiters on platforms such as WhatsApp, Telegram, WeChat, Facebook, or Line. They may falsely promise job opportunities, request payment in exchange for job introduction or an interview, or attempt to collect sensitive personal information such as your bank details, credit card number, or passwords during job introduction phase.
⚠️ Please note – this is a scam.
At Pasona Singapore, we never ask job seekers for money, bank transfers in return for job introduction. All applications through our official channels are free of charge, and our consultants strictly follow professional and ethical recruitment practices.
